About the Novel
Romance bookstore owner Olivia Snow has a serious choice to make. When the godlike sous-chef at the French bistro next door saves her cat Nilly from the top of a lamppost in the quaint town of Dundas, Olivia believes her months-old feud with him is over.
Olivia believes that maybe she has feelings for him until her pretty younger sister Gabrielle beats her to the punch.
The sisters both need dates to attend their cousin Darla's Christmas wedding at a gorgeous chateau near Paris.
Imagine winter in Paris and a castle wedding! Sounds like a dream-come-true.
Then sister Gabby steals her date. Olivia is desperate to find another guy, and settles for Hank, a wine connoisseur and manager of her local liquor store. Seems like a safe date in a pinch.
Yeah, pretty ordinary guy, she thinks… but boy is she ever wrong! And that is where the story really takes off and takes us through some interesting plot twists to a satisfying conclusion.

The series includes romance, pets, holidays, good food, and cheery drink… and a warm, safe den with a strong yet sensitive spouse to curl up with when the weather outside is chilly and blustery. Speaking of which, she is Canadian and knows a little bit about snow, so cozy is always a priority.

About Daphne Lynn Stewart
The author is Canadian, born in Vancouver British Columbia and now living just outside Toronto. She has traveled widely with her professor husband with whom she shares the love of archaeology. Together they have visited London, Paris, Barcelona, the French Riviera, Rome, Florence, and Venice, as well as the South Pacific, sometimes in a work capacity and sometimes just for fun. It brings a smile to her face when she sees couples walk down cobblestone streets hand-in-hand or sipping wine at outdoor patios in these romantic places. And she imagines how they might have met. With her Christmas stories, she likes to think that a pet—a woman's best friend—probably had something to do with how they fell in love.
Christmas is Daphne Lynn Stewart's favourite time of year because that is the season during which she found her 'forever guy.' Most of her stories take place during that festive season—sometimes in small towns, and sometimes in the big city. Everything is always Merry and Bright (although it may not start out that way); and love and happiness are possible for anyone.
She is a novelist but has written heartwarming stories for the popular series Chicken Soup for the Soul under the name of Deborah Cannon. You can read Tang's Christmas Miracle in CHRISTMAS IN CANADA and Our Yard: A Canadian Tale in THE SPIRIT OF CANADA. She has published two series of novelettes. Indulge in a SUMMER DESTINY romance and, as autumn fades to winter, cuddle up with your fur baby by a roaring fire and enjoy one of Daphne Lynn Stewart's cosy MERRY AND BRIGHT holiday love stories.
